Bob Ryan Tells THE Larry Bird & Kevin McHale Story

[@jingqi9106]

The forward tandem od Larry Bird and Kevin McHale is arguably the greatest ever.

[@wmden1]

I agree, with what he said about Walton and Bird playing on the same team, then McHale, Parrish, then the rest of the team and the great bench, it was way unfair to the rest of the league. When a team has a high desire to win, and is full of talent, and skill, and all are unselfish, it is going to win and be great fun to watch play their game.

There is a reason why Chuck said McHale was the best player he played against. His post game was elite.

[@MP-tf7cc]

DJ was a very good passer. Anyone could feed McHale in the post. It was the other spots where Bird would find him or set him up off a shot fake or drive.

[@richardpare3538]

DJ was another of those players with incredible court sense - he played his role to perfection, and together, he and Bird played like 2 bodies controlled by one mind.

Ever hear of audio leveling?

[@servantofgod5642]

Is audio leveling when instead of using a long plank you just yell at the concrete and it flattens out ?????

Its weird how so many sentences get cut ?

[@toddfrank3344]

Ryan was always partial to McHale. He even wrote a piece in 1987 that was titled "Better Than Bird." McHale was NEVER better than Bird, even in 87, because McHale wouldn't have been free to do a lot of those individual moves had Bird not been getting him the ball in his spots, and had Bird not drawn so much defensive attention away from him. McHale would not have had the HOF career that he had if it weren't for Bird.

[@jeffreyjacobs390]

Kevin gets much accolades and video footage of plays he makes ..... LARRY LEGEND not so - there the title becomes misleading and disappointing in that oversight.
